Hi B. Detaching can be difficult. I still struggle. I'm sure you've read Sandi's Rules...(Think it's called that). Review those; write your own version. Review it often. A few things that helped me was to think of mlc as a sickness/addiction. This person I care for made these choices to take this journey. They need to figure it out. It has nothing to do with me. Step back & let the journey happen.
When you start truly letting go, you'll feel it. It's letting go of a situation that you did not create. When you do this, your mind becomes free. The wheels stop turning so fast. You begin to focus more on YOU.
YOU come first. Your kids need you too of course. Every morning start the day with a word or mantra that sets the tone for a positive life. You might have set backs. STOP and refocus. I am strong, I matter, I will get through this, I'm not alone, I will be okay. Whatever gets you to reset your focus.
You CAN do this
